Answer:

y = 66x + 340

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to give the slope-intercept equation of a line with the slope given and it passes through a given line.

Generally, the equation of a line is given by:

y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the intercept. We have the slope given but we do not have the intercept. Hence, the first thing we do is to find the value of the intercept. We calculate that as follows:

since the line passes through a point, we substitute the values of the ordinate and the abscissa in the general equation of the line.

This means; 10 = 66(-5) + C

C = 10 + 330 = 340

Hence, the general equation of the line is;

y = 66x + 340

Answer:

$\frac{1}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

I think what it is trying to say is that it wants the solution to multiplying all of those. The (...) simply means that it wants you to continue that pattern in what you are supposed to be multiplying, but stop at $\frac{24}{25}$ .

That would mean you are technically supposed to be multiplying:

$\frac{1}{2} \frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5} \frac{5}{6} \frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9} \frac{9}{10} \frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13} \frac{13}{14} \frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17} \frac{17}{18} \frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21} \frac{21}{22} \frac{22}{23} \frac{23}{24} \frac{24}{25}$

That is a lot and unfortunately, none of the individual fractions can be simplified within that. The final answer would be able to be simplified, though.

Multiplying the first four shown: $\frac{1}{2}\frac{2}{3} \frac{3}{4} \frac{4}{5}$ you end up with $\frac{24}{120}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 24. Dividing top and bottom would simplify this to $\frac{1}{5}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{5}{6}\frac{6}{7} \frac{7}{8} \frac{8}{9}$ allows you to end up with $\frac{1680}{3024}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 336. You are left with $\frac{5}{9}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{9}{10}\frac{10}{11} \frac{11}{12} \frac{12}{13}$ . Multiplying these gives you $\frac{11880}{17160}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 1320. You are left with $\frac{9}{13}$ .

Now, let's take the next four.

$\frac{13}{14}\frac{14}{15} \frac{15}{16} \frac{16}{17}$ . Multiplying these gives you $\frac{43680}{57120}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 3360. You are left with $\frac{13}{17}$ .

* Although I would continue to say let's take the next four, there appears to be a pattern in the simplification. The numerators we have gotten have all been four less than their denominators, and each numerator has been four more than the last. I cannot be certain, but we only have two sets of four left. If this pattern continues, the simplifications of each should be $\frac{17}{21}$ and $\frac{21}{25}$ . I will continue on for argument's sake, anyways.

The next four are $\frac{17}{18}\frac{18}{19} \frac{19}{20} \frac{20}{21}$ . Multiplying these, you are left with $\frac{116280}{143640}$ . Both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) are divisible by 6840. We are left with $\frac{17}{21}$ . This is the exact guess I had made when following the pattern, and so the next one is most likely going to be the other guess as well.

Our final answer will be $\frac{1}{5}\frac{5}{9} \frac{9}{13} \frac{13}{17}\frac{17}{21} \frac{21}{25}$ all multiplied together. We end up with $\frac{208845}{5221125}$ . Both the numerator (top) and denominator (bottom) are divisible by 208845.

Simplified, your final answer is: $\frac{1}{25}$ .

* NOTE: that another way to solve this would just be to multiply all numbers from 1-24 together and then 2-25, but you would end up with a very large number that would be just as time consuming to simplify. To get the GCF fast, I used a GCF calculator.

When the original amount is less than the new amount, the percent of change is called a(n)

charle [14.2K]

When the original amount is less than the new amount, the percent of change is called a percent of increase. The original amount is smaller than the new amount and this means that the amount has increased in the positive direction I hope that this answer has actually helped you.
